NAD cries over chieftaincy Disputes in Assin land

NAD cries over chieftaincy Disputes  in Assin land



Over the years, the people of Assin land have  been  experiencing  Chieftaincy dispute; and situation has thwarted development in the area.

Our Survey has revealed that there are no chiefs in most  of the 'Big' towns  in Assin land  after the demise of a number of   chiefs in the area.

 This has affected the Assin land in diverse ways especially when it comes to development.

 For instance, for over 40 years Assin Akropong has never installed a single chief in the area. 

Just recently a purported installation of a chief in the community brought about a various factions that created misunderstandings among some families.

The much talked about and renowned town like Assin Fosu has no chief for over the 10 years not to mention other towns like Assin Ahenkro and Assin Manson.

 To add insult to injury, the TUTU festival, which is an occasion to unite and foster development in Assin Fosu has not been celebrated for the last 30 years as a result of chieftaincy disputes.

As a Network we believe that a properly installed chiefs in Assin Land will help in the development of our communities.

We are therefore demanding that the Institutions such as the National House of Chiefs, Central Regional House of Chiefs, the Central Regional Minister as well as the Peace Council as a matter of urgency should endeavour to respond swiftly to the situation in order to promote development in the area.

Again, we are also calling on  all stakeholders, opinion leaders and all concerned citizens of Assin to help bring a closure to the matter.

However, we are giving  the National House of Chiefs   six months   ultimatum to help  address  these pressing chieftaincy disputes that has bedevilled our communities for all this while.

Network for Assin Development (NAD)  will  mount pressure on  all the  stakeholders   if they turn a deaf ears to our grievances.

As Mahatma Ghandhi says ' An eye for an eye will only make the world go blind'.

Long live Assin
Long live Network For Assin Development
Long live Ghana
